Mews of fye Week. 
HOME NEWS. 
Saturday. February 2, 1889. 
The Ohio House has passed a bill providing 
for execution by electricity . The 
Massachusetts and Pennsylvania Legislatures 
favor Prohibitory amendments to the consti¬ 
tutions of their respective States.The 
American Federation of labor proposes to 
start an eight-hour agitation to culminate in 
ubiquitous strikes on .May 1, next year. It 
urges workmen to hold mass meetings on 
Washington’s Birth-day this year and next, 
and on the Fourth of July and Labor Day- 
Sept. 2.—of this year.The capital of 
Arizona has been changed from Prescott to 
Phoenix.Oklahoma boomers are 
pouring into the territory by hundreds, and 
are being driven out about as numerously by 
the United States troops Some who refuse 
to move are tied to waeon backs and forced to 
trot along. A large batch are to start south 
from various points in Southern Kansas to- 
dar . . Charles A. B. Shepard, of the 
well known book firm of Lee and Shepard, of 
Boston, died Jan 25, aged 60 years. 
Vanderbilt University, at Nashville, is to give 
free instruction in road-making to Tennessee 
county highway officials during February and 
March.Tbe Senate has passed the 
tariff bill by a strict party vote of 32 to 
30.Cabinet-making has been the 
busiest industry in 'he country since the elec¬ 
tions. The upset at present appears to be 
Blaine, Secretary of State; Allison, Secretary 
of the Treasury; Alger, Secretary of War; 
Wanamaker, Post-master- General, with 
three other Cabinet positions to be filled 
from hundreds of candidates. 
All the flouring mills in St Louis have closed 
down in accordance with the agreement at 
the late Milwaukee convention, under which 
250 mills in the fall-wheat belt were either to 
close down or run on half time during January. 
The Minneapolis mills are grinding only 
about one-third of their full capacity.. 
A mammoth cotton palace is to be erected in 
New Orleans, in which the products of 
Louisiana and other States will be exhibited 
during the carnival week.The 
reduction of the public debt during De¬ 
cember was $14.427,595.... ....During the 
past year 1,800 girls have been graduated 
from the Boston cooking schools .. Controller 
of the Currency, W. L. Trenholm, has re¬ 
signed, and J. D. Abrahams of Virginia, has 
been nominated for his place.Upwards 
of 400 nominations made by the President are 
“hung up” in the Senate, which, it is ex¬ 
pected, will refuse to act in nearly all of 
them, so that Harrison may be able to fill the 
places after March 4. When Cleveland came 
in, all Arthur’s nominations had been acted 
on except 36. .Recently a number of 
German sailors were landed from a German 
war vessel near Apia, the chief town in the 
Samoan Islands, to help the native German 
pretender to the throne, Tamasese, against 
the American favorite, Mataafa. The fol¬ 
lowers of the latter attached the Germans and 
killed over 20 of them, wounding about 35 
more,some of whom have since died. Bismarck 
has declared war against Mataafa. and the 
Germans are searching all vessels that come 
near the islands for goods contraband of war. 
Secretary Bayard says America has no valid 
grounds for war with Germany on account 
of the Samoan embroglio. There’s a good 
deal of Jingoism, however, about the 
matter. Some newspapers would plunge 
the country into a vast war to add a 
few thousands to their circulation. Bis¬ 
marck wants a friendly settlement. . .. 
The Senate is not likely to confirm the late 
extradition treaty with Great Britain. 
Canada wants to abandon the modus vivendi 
brought about by Chamberlain’s rejected 
Fishery treaty, which authorizes the issue of 
fishing licenses to American vessels. 
The total number of immigrants arriving in 
the United States from all countries, save 
Mexico and Canada, during 1888 is 518,518 
against 510,058 the previous year. 
There is talk of making ex-Senator Warner 
Miller, of New York, the next Commissioner 
of Agriculture in the expectation that he 
may soon become a Cabinet officer. The 
agricultural colleges and experiment sta¬ 
tions appear to be opposed to such a meas¬ 
ure.Robert M. Steel, of Phila¬ 
delphia, has bought the California trotting 
stallion Antevolo for $30,000 .. 
A big streei>-car strike in Brooklyn and New 
York has greatly impeded travel during the 
week. The men struck simply because the 
companies refused to have anything to do 
with their labor organizations, while ready to 
settle complaints with the men individually. 
Considerable rioting in places; but the com¬ 
panies appear to be getting enough new men 
to run the cars, and they refuse all offers of 
arbitration.Pennsylvania legislators 
propose to inflict three years’ imprisonment 
and a fine of *1,000 on White-Caps who may 
send intimidating letters, circulars, posters, 
etc., to any person.

munificent donation of $2,000 to the funds of 
the society.The Kansas Senate has 
passed a bill restricting the ownership of real 
estate to American citizens, and limiting the 
area of land that can be held by corporations. 
The House is sure to pass it_A 20-months-old 
hog, recently killed at Freehold, N. J., weighed 
832 pounds. The owner killed two some time 
ago which weighed 2,050 pounds . 
The Agricultural Appropriation Bill complet¬ 
ed Thursday, asks Congress for $1,636.010. 
The 14th annual meeting of the Ayrshire 
Breeders’ Association will be held at the Fifth 
Avenue Hotel this city on February 21, at 2 
P. M. W. Winslow, Secretary, Brandon, Vt. 
.The New York State Cane Growers’ 
Association will hold its ninth annual meet¬ 
ing at Grange Hall, Fairport, on February 12 
and 13..Farmers in South Carolina 
and several other Sou'hern States are furious 
against colonization agents seeking to induce 
their hands to move elsewhere. Several 
of them have been hung lately. 
Measuring to Emergency. 
It is not well to believe all you hear. This 
is even a worse fault than faith in nothing. 
Among other dismal precedents we have long 
accepted, is the belief that catarrh is incur¬ 
able. But precedent is seldom cheerful and 
often inexact. It comes to us from a time 
when means were unsuited to the ends in 
view. 
We alter this proportion in these days. 
For success implies the ability to measure to 
emergency, no matter how desperate. In 
this way Compound Oxygen is valuable. At 
least such is tflo inference from the following: 
Alma, Neb., February 13,1888. 
“ I do unhesitatingly say that Compound 
Oxygen will cure catarrh.” 
Hon. H. C. Griffth. 
Atlanta, Georgia. 
“I still recommend your remedy to my 
friends who are afflicted, and why should I 
not? It saved my wife’s life and cured my 
boy of catarrh.” Mr. Walter T. Forbes. 
Columbia City, Ind., March 19,1888. 
“ It is about three years now since I had 
used treatment to such good purpose for 
catarrh, and I find it has not lost,its virtues 
in tbe least.” Henry McLallen. 
We publish a brochure of 200 pages, regard 
ing the effect of Compound Oxygen on inva¬ 
lids suffering from consumption, asthma, bron¬ 
chitis, dyspepsia, catarrh, hay fever, headache, 
debility, rheumatism, neuralgia; all chronic 
and nervous disorders. It will be sent, free of 
charge, to any one addressing Drs. Starkey 
& Palen, 1529 Arch St., Philadelphia, Pa., or 
331 Montgomery St.,San Francisco, Cal. —Adv.
